The following is Mitchell's biography from Op-Ed News:
- Brad is a Director of Public Affairs at Monsanto. Prior to coming to Monsanto, he was with the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources where managed the Department regulatory and environmental programs.

He has a particular interest in the relationship between agriculture and nutrition.[1]
As of March 28 2009 Mitchell had posted three articles on Op-Ed News, a forum that usually carries much critical comment about Monsanto. All three articles try to counter negative news stories about Monsanto. Mitchell's articles are:
- "HR 875 - Monsanto's Dream Bill or an Internet Rumor"[2]. This is a response to Linn Cohen-Cole's article for Op-Ed News, "Monsanto's dream bill, HR 875", which alleges a Monsanto link to pending US legislation giving the federal government more control over farming and food production.[3]
- "Do GM Crops Increase Yield?"[4]
- "Monsanto and Seed Cleaners"[5]
